The Northern Carmine Bee-eater (Merops nubicus nubicus) is part of the bee-eater family, Meropidae, and is also known as the Nubian bee-eater. It is a brightly-coloured bird and feeds primarily on bees and other flying insects, such as grasshoppers and locusts (description from the Avian Phylogenomics Project http://gigadb.org/dataset/101029). This sample was collected by Mads Bertelsen from a female that lived at the Copenhagen Zoo in Denmark (same animal as in BioSample SAMN02338310) and was used to generate a chromosome level reference assembly as part of the G10K-VGP and B10K Projects.
